Default Help 96 SL-2 no compression

Hi all

I have a 1996 Saturn SL2 143,000 miles. Was running fine not a
problem. Then Yesterday morning I started it up and the engine
had a miss. Ran rough. Figured a wire plug or pack. Drove it over to
the local shop. He found 0 compression in the #3 cylinder I mean
0 . Shot some oil in and the compression was still 0. Took the valve
cover off all looked fine nothing broken. He is not sure what's wrong
at this point. Whole in piston a valve ??? Compression good in other
cylindesr. So no bridge between cylinders. Remember the compression
gauge did not move. Any Ideas without pulling the head.

Thanks Ron
